MIPS: ensure MSA gets disabled during boot
The kernel relies upon MSA being disabled when a task begins running, so that it can initialise or restore context in response to the resulting MSA disabled exception. Previously the state of MSA following boot was left as it was before the kernel ran, where MSA could potentially have been enabled. Explicitly disable it during boot to prevent any problems. As a nice side effect the code reads a little better too.
